The Equipment Leasing & Finance Foundation released a new study, “Vertical Market Outlook Series: Office Imaging.” The report examined the manufacturers, end-users, products and services that comprise the sector’s changing landscape. It is the seventh release of the ELFF’s forward-looking Vertical Market Outlook Series, which was designed to help readers recognize and understand opportunities and challenges that may affect their businesses.

The report was commissioned by the foundation. The new study presents data and research from a variety of sources and examines a range of issues, including:

• Market size and future growth
• Macroeconomic environment (labor/employment, new work models, supply chain issues)
• Technology (digital transformation, cloud connectivity, sustainability, security)
• Payment and financing (options for equipment acquisition, managed services)

“Being aware of the forces impacting this industry will be helpful to those providing leasing and financing as they work with their clients to find the best possible solutions to their imaging needs,” Tom Ware, foundation research committee chair at the ELFF, said. “This study provides insightful market intelligence for equipment finance professionals to use in their strategic planning and decision-making.”
